Two words: Cold Turkey. Take it one day at at time and treat each day that you go without a smoke as a real achievemement.
..and you have to approach this like an alcoholic; you're always one cigarette away from smoking again, so make you're mind up that it's over with from the beginning. Good luck!
I picked up a stereo copy of Stanley Turrentine's Dearly Beloved. Sounds better than most of the other Liberty pressings that I own. Great session too!
I can't find where the sound gets 'wonky.' I've yet to learn how & where McMaster compromised Turrentine's sound.
Me either. I listended to Discs 1 and 2 over the weekend and couldn't notice anything bad or peculiar.
I really like the Noah Howard at Judson Hall session. I haven't listened to it in a while and need to revisit it soon. It has a nice chamber music feel with the prominent cello work.
I played guitar on a self-titled indie release called The Bohemians back in the mid-80s.
Also played in a band called House of Chang - a few tracks that we did ended-up on a compilation of NYC bands.
Also, if you're into the Patton/Green grease thing. Green's "Blues For Lou" is one that has definately grown on me over the years. Nice and raw and really, really cooking.
The Natural Soul is another artery-cloggin' affair.
Also available STEVE LACY - Futurites, Part 2.
Hey, what happened to all of the activity on this thread? Now's a good time to do some Spring cleaning and to clear out some unwanted items.
Thanks for posting that link!
It's not that I don't like it, on first listen it didn't sound as good to me as some of the other TOCJs that I own (e.g., Soundin' Off, Steppin' Out). I need to give it a few more spins.
I just received Baby Face's Face to Face from Dusty Groove. It's numbered TOCJ 6471 and is packaged differently from the others that I have. This one has a cheezy-looking back cover with a picture of the artist and titles in both English and Japanese. They reproduced the original LP back cover on the back of the insert.
I'm assuming that this is a newer series and I'm wondering how it (they) compare in sound to the older TOCJs? This is the first time I'm hearing this session so I have nothing to compare it to, but on the surface it doesn't sound as good to me as others that I own.
